Thanks Wilma!!!!!!! 26. oktober 2005, 02:46:54 Onderwerp: Re: harley: Well i sure hope it keeps her out.Were getting sleet oh no that'll be frozen for sure tonite. 26. oktober 2005, 00:29:31 Onderwerp: Re:  Foxy Lady: Way more than double the trouble!! I never had to worry about pine needles, I always had an artificial tree. But I remember from when I was a kid those things get everywhere! Theres no play pen in the world will keep pine needles in! 26. oktober 2005, 00:25:49 Onderwerp: Re: harley: Twins oh my thats double trouble  .....Were also afraid she'll pick at the pine needles everything goes in mouth now.26. oktober 2005, 00:04:29 Onderwerp: Re: BerniceC: Cats are much more adaptable than dogs, and I think they understand more too. Dogs are very loyal and stress more with changes. They also pick up on their owners feelings more than cats. 25. oktober 2005, 23:55:30 Onderwerp: Re:  harley: I have just given him a shirt with a tissue in the pocket that I found in the bedroom..it was going to be washed before I dispose of his clothing and he seems to be sleeping happily, but we will wait and see. It doesn't seem to be bothering the cat altho he has gotten more smoochy with me LOLOL....He was Verns cat. 25. oktober 2005, 23:43:41 Onderwerp: Re: BerniceC: Aww the poor thing. It might just be a phase, its probably just him being sad thats making him do it. He'll be confused about why he isn't around now, and he'll also be picking up on your sorrow. Its a bad time for you both. 25. oktober 2005, 23:37:55 Onderwerp: Re: harley: thanks Harley I will try the article of clothing and see what happens....he pooped twice last night...once on a mat that I was able to wash (I put him outside, first time ever at night) and he got up this morning when I let him in and he pooped on the carpet :(
Thankfully I have a good cleaner and there arent any stains. 25. oktober 2005, 23:29:23 Foxy when my twins were little I'd put my tree near a wall, then get cotton or string, and in 4 or 5 places tie it around the middle of the tree so you can't see it and pit in to the wall behind. It stopped the tree falling on them if they pulled it. 25. oktober 2005, 23:25:25 Onderwerp: Re: ScarletRose: They sell a Pine scented spray you can spray the tree with.We usually put ours up about a week before,this year with the baby all over i'm thinking of putting the tree in the play pen. Safety reasons for the tree mind you.Nahhhh i'm worried about the pine needles and her grabbing at the tree.We did this with Gabrielle and it worked out well.25. oktober 2005, 20:39:30 Onderwerp: Re:  harley: I ended up buying an artifical one last year.. it is 7 foot tall.. but, I still enjoy the smells of a real one.. who knows.. maybe I will just buy some fresh garland or something.. 25. oktober 2005, 20:29:04 I know its not quite the same Scarlet but there are some beautiful artificial trees these days. And they last for years. 25. oktober 2005, 20:27:23 Thankies for all the suggestions.. every year I dread getting that real tree only to having to get a new one a week before Christmas... due to the first one drying out so much..
Either that.. or I wait till a week before to get a tree.. 25. oktober 2005, 14:14:22 Onderwerp: Re: Holidays are right around the corner.. ScarletRose: The recutting helps a lot, also there is a product some places sell called Prolong which seems to help... 25. oktober 2005, 02:37:15 Onderwerp: Re: Holidays are right around the corner.. ScarletRose: My husband always re-cuts the tree after we get it home and gets it in a big pail of water.We never put it up too early the heat drys it out.SR we tried all the tricks even the aspirin but constant watering works best for us.Reason for re-cutting is the sap runs to the bottom and reseals itself. 25. oktober 2005, 02:14:47 Onderwerp: Re: Holidays are right around the corner.. ScarletRose: If they still have their roots attached they can take up water, and then be planted out after the festive season. 25. oktober 2005, 02:12:56 Onderwerp: Holidays are right around the corner.. Who has that perfect water solution to keep Christmas Trees from Dying out?? ..
I have heard about the lemonade mixture but, it doesn't seem to help mine.. does someone else know a better mix? 25. oktober 2005, 02:06:56 Onderwerp: Re: BerniceC: No problem Bernice pets also go thru a mourning period.Harley has a good idea about using some clothing of Verns.
Please feel free to post. 24. oktober 2005, 12:13:10 Onderwerp: Re: BerniceC: It can sometimes help to put in their basket an item of clothing which would have Vern's scent on it. An old jumper or something. It might make him feel a bit happier.
Theres some quite good advice on this page too; http://netscape.petplace.com/Articles/artShow.asp?artID=4085 Good luck with him. 24. oktober 2005, 09:09:54 this isnt gardening but.....???

My wee Bear (shih-tzu) is pining (sp) for Vern...will not go outside...pee'd on the mat in the night and is generally got a sad hang-dog look. Im sorry Foxy, but gardening, pets, digging holes, and crap on the lawn seems like it all fits in...*:)* 24. oktober 2005, 05:25:47 Onderwerp: Re: Snow spicieangel: C'mon up to New York State we have all kinds of winter sports.I love it here and the 4 seasons and the snow.Just hate the high oil bills. 24. oktober 2005, 05:17:18 Onderwerp: Re: Snow Foxy Lady: oh my lucky lady i know you dont think so lol but i love snow maybe ill try to talk hubby into moving to your neck of the woods lol 23. oktober 2005, 19:19:22 Onderwerp: Snow Well we woke up to snow nothing big it's gone already. 23. oktober 2005, 04:50:49 I don't know about any body else but our weather is in the 30's.Our fall is cutting short and we could see Snow soon.Oh what a horrid thought. 20. oktober 2005, 07:13:49 Onderwerp: fragrant foliage 19. oktober 2005, 02:22:59 I though my fellow garden gnomes would find this interesting:
